So it’s been about a month since I’ve come back from New York and like I promised here’s my recap. This has been sitting as a draft for awhile now and I figured it’s time for it to see the light of day.

I’ll keep it relatively short.

I must preface this recipe with the fact that I was heavily inspired by Jenifer D’s amazing Kimchi Burger. Without it, this version would be non-existent.

I was attending a BBQ and as such made a batch large enough for approximately 24 patties. You’ll probably want to adjust the portions accordingly. Just adjust the ratio of the ingredients to match the amount of meat you’ll be using.

Here’s my shopping list and their respective quantities:

Ground Beef - 5 lbs
Premium Sake - 1 Tb Spoon
Mirin - 2 Tb Spoons
Garlic Jalapeno - 3 Tea Spoons (Chopped) or equiv 3 cloves
Soy Sauce - 1/2 Cup
Sugar - 1/3 Cup
Scallions (Green Onions) - 5 (Chopped)
Pure Sesame Oil - 2 Tb Spoons
Sesame Seeds - 2.5 Tb Spoons
Water Chestnuts - 1 Cup *8oz *1 Can (Chopped)
Bacon - 24 Strips
Toothpicks - 24
Kimchi - Lots of it
